 Hammonassett Tribe,s Excellent Con- cert Last Night-A Large Audience Present.
 Despite the very unpleasant weather of last evening good sized audience was in attend ance at the inaugural entertainment of the Red Men in the Atheneum. All the num- bers as published in our issue of yesterday were we'll rendered and received we'll deserv- ed applause. MT. George Eager came to the front as piano soloist, his rendition of Tausig's "Waltz Caprice" calling forth en- thusiastic applause, to which he responded with Goldbeck's Dreaming by the Brook" Mir. Antonio Rockwell's numbers met with warm and well deserved recognition. MT. Rockwell made decided hit. MT. George Streit rendered in charming manner "Ein Traum," masterpiece which taxed the capa- bilities of his instrument, the clarionet The flute solo by MT. Charles T. Howe was par ticularly well rendered. The Misses Schnee- loch and the Dwight Place quartette sang with their usual grace and fully sustained their reputation as favorites, while J. c. Gould in his rendering of Sullivan's ''Lost Chord" showed his mastery of the coruet, and Mir. Eager as the accompanists acquitted him self ably.
 Altogether it was notable concert and Hammonassett tribe and the local musicians taking part have every reason to be proud of their first concert, which emphasized the fact that there are first class musicians in New Haven and an organization to recognize them.

DOCTOR SLAIN IN COLD BLOOD. Four Wh1skey Men Attack PoIiti- cal opponent And Blow His Heart Out With Their Shotguns.

A DOCTOR SLAIN IN COLD BLOOD.
 Four Wh1skey Men Attack A PoIiti-
 cal Opponent And Blow His Heart
 Out With Their ShOtguns.
 PORTSMOUTH, O., April 28.-At Haverhill,
 small town in the eastern part of Scioto
 county on the Ohio river, Dr. W. T. North
 rup, prominent physician and vice presi-
 dent of the Scioto County Medical society,
 was brutally murdered yesterday afternoon
 by Thomas Mccoy, saloon keeper, and his
 brother Alfred, the postmaster of Haverhill, aided by Pierson and James Mccoy, sons of Alfred, aged twenty and fifteen. The Mc- Coys are whiskey Democrats and Dr. Northrup was prohibitionist. The Me- Coys had always run the township elections to suit themselves till Northrup's arrival five years ago. He at once changed things and was working hard to introduce local option. This usurpation of what the MeCoys consid- cred their political rights, followed by state of affairs that threatened to ruin their business, incurred their bitter hostility. Yesterday afternoon the four McCoys, learning that Dr. Northrup had neglected the precaution to arm himself-a measure which the doctor had adopted some time ago in deference to his friends wishes, who knew of the McCoys' enmity-lay in wait for him. Just as Dr. Northrup reached point on the street oppo- site the postofice Alfred Mccoy ran out and headed hirl off from reaching his office, the others meanwhile opening fire with shotguns upon the doctor from the house of Thomas Mccoy. The doctor attempted to retreat to his office, but was intercepted by Alfred Drawing his pocket knife the doctor stab- bed the postmaster in the side, cutting him badly. Young Pierson Mccoy, fearing their victim would escape, although he had been fired at eight times, three loads taking effect, ran from the house and up to the doc tor and placing his gun almost against his breast fired both barrels, the loads passing entirely through the doctors body and tear ing out his heart. w. A. Vandernest of Grannan's detective agency of Cincinnati, who happened to be in the village visiting, was witness of the tragedy, but too far off Alfred Mccoy, who was lying on the ground bleeding from Northrup's knife thrust, and put him in jail and at once started in pursuit of the others. He cap tured them late last night at point several miles down the river. They are now safe in jail. There is tremendous excitement over the bloody affair and 8 lynching is not un- likely. Dr. Northrop was thirty-five years of age, had large practice and many friends. He came from Gallias county five years ago. He was engaged to be married to Miss Ella Oakes, daughter of Joshua Oakes, wealthy farmer. Alfred Mccoy is badly wounded. He is man thirty seven years of age. His brother Thomas is thirty-fve. Alfred was recently appointed postmaster at Hayerhill

MexIco,s Lost Bonanza Mines Discov- cred.

GALVESTON, Tex, April 2s.-News from the City of Mexico announces the discovery of two of the seven lost Bonanza mines by an American party of prospectors. A survey ing expedition in the interest of the Sonora land company, found maps and other data in an old chapel. A thorough search was be- gun, and they located what is believed to be the s'Layopa" silver mine. It is in the midst of thousands of ruined buildings among large churches and forts. Within radius of four miles are 420 old Spanish furnaces and tons of slag. A few days later a number of the party reported the discovery of the Quay anopa in the heart of the Sierra Madre noun tains. Around it are the ruins of 11S rusto- ras. Advices from Nogales, Ariz., confirm the report and state that great placer field has been located where the Jesuits of four hundred years ago found fortunes for the church. Great excitement in mining centers 1oravaiJa
